Dyno Tuning
A modified vehicle should have a professional tune to ensure that its engine and other components work together optimally and safely. Modifying a vehicle, such as adding a turbocharger, changing the exhaust system, or altering the fuel system, can affect how the engine runs and its performance characteristics
Get top-notch engine dyno tuning services at Dale’s Motorsport!
Our performance engine builds and modifications often require tuning, and Stratified Automotive Controls is our go-to for reliable and efficient dyno tuning services.
Highly recommended by fellow enthusiasts, Alex and his team have been excellent to work with from our very first tune.
Why should a modified vehicle have a professional tune
A professional tune or some call a “calibration” involves adjusting various parameters, such as fuel injection timing, air/fuel ratios, and ignition timing.
To achieve the desired level of performance while maintaining reliability and drivability.
A professional tuner has the expertise and specialized tools to fine-tune a modified vehicle’s engine.
This can result in better power, improved fuel efficiency, and reduced wear and tear on the engine.
Additionally, a proper tune can help prevent costly engine damage and ensure that the vehicle meets emissions and other legal requirements.
Optimize Your Vehicle's Performance with Our Chassis Dyno Services
A chassis dyno, short for chassis dynamometer, is a crucial tool for measuring the power output and performance of your vehicle’s engine.
What is a Chassis Dyno?
A chassis dyno consists of a set of rollers that your vehicle is driven onto, connected to a measuring device that records various performance metrics.
This allows for comprehensive analysis and adjustments to enhance engine performance.
Benefits of Chassis Dyno Testing
Performance Tuning: Automotive enthusiasts, mechanics, and race teams use chassis dynos to fine-tune engines. By measuring power output at different RPMs and under various load conditions, our experts can adjust components and settings to optimize performance.
Diagnostic Tool: Dyno testing helps diagnose engine issues, such as low power output or uneven power delivery. Identifying poorly performing components becomes easier, allowing for targeted repairs and improvements.
Types of Chassis Dynos
We offer various types of chassis dynos to suit different needs:
- Single Roller or Multiple Rollers: For precise measurement and testing.
- Rear-Wheel Drive and All-Wheel Drive: Catering to all vehicle types.
- Advanced Instrumentation: Equipped with sensors like air/fuel ratio meters and thermocouples for detailed engine performance data.
